Denise - CC & Thread: I had a very good chat with Net Shepherd's comptroller this afternoon. Now, he can't tell me anything private, nor did I ask & of course nor will I babble and try to pump this stock. But I have a few thoughts. Net Shepherd does their business on the net, they are not a business that went on line their business is on line. If their business is on line, they are used to speed. Thus being efficient for themselves & their clients. They are in the information business, thus very solutions oriented. It's no accident that a solutions oriented company gets involved with an Answers.com deal. The match is obvious. Being an efficient solutions driven operation with their sites on a Nasdaq listing tells me they will get there more quickly than most. Dunn & Bradstreet use Net Shepherd because they can gather information 10 times faster than through conventional call center applications & at one tenth the cost. Speed & solutions are everything to these people, so I expect execution sooner and without sloppy errors. This is a dot the i's & cross the t's operation. They don't strike me as a group that will put out a news release to prop up their stock. Expect their next news release to have some meat to it. The stock will respond accordingly. Like you, I hate to see the stock price decline, but I also like knowing there is a well thought out game plan to this company that will have it's share price driven higher on it's own merits. With that babble I leave you with best wishes for a great weekend. Mike

>>Seems to me these firms was advising their clients to put stops in, and boy! are those people going to be MAD<< It has happened to me more times than I care to remember. I have had stops in place on some of my other holdings, only to watch in horror as the share price rapidly drops right down to my stop price. Now we are not talking tight stops folks. But what makes me furious is that once the stops have been hit, I have watched how the stock immediately runs back up again, and then invariably takes of! Damn, that is frustrating. That said, please don't get me wrong as I firmly believe in protecting yourself with stops. However, with this stock, I have been more interested in buying more than protecting my initial investment. I believe that in this case it will pay off for me. It would be an expensive lesson if I was wrong. But I don't think I am. Have a good weekend! Crazy Canuk
